Aspen, i noticed your signature picture in your reply to me about my new digi cam....... it touched me and brought back my memories instantly..

ill bet Booh was your "soul animal". my soul animal was my first wolfdog, Nikona, here's a site dedicated to her:

the poem was done by a friend of mine with the picture of Nikona in her final days.......

i miss her always. you never forget, you just learn to live with it and go on.

have a good weekend.
